It was an open field, it had people dressed in gray tunics uniform shouting at other people dressed in orange, this was the guardian recruit training area, Sorami stood wearing the orange jumpsuit of the recruits, and this was supposed to be her first day. A figure shouted from behind, she turned to come face to face with her own father, and beside him was the one who had been the one to yell at her, she bowed in their direct "We are the Light and the Purifying Flame" she said respectfully.

"This is your instructor Drake Hawkins, he is not going to go easy one you just because you are my daughter, you are to be trained as hard as everyone else" said Tajiri pointing at all their other trainees that were there, all of them way older than she was, Sorami was 10 years of age, the youngest recruit in the history of the guardians.

"I understand father I won't disappoint you!" Sorami said having a hard time hiding the excitement in her voice, she had dreamed to follow in his footsteps, and then become a digidestined; hopefully both her dreams would come true.

"You are my legacy" Tajiri said walking over and placing his hand on Sorami's head "You will make me proud to be your father, you will become the greatest guardian of all time one day"

Sorami face flushed in reaction to what her father just said, she hoped she could live up to her Father's Legacy, and fulfills the mandate of the Guardians and everything they stood for "We are the Light and the Purifying Flame" she repeated giving another bow, before following Drake into the training ground.

Digimon Sync Episode 27 "The Unexpected Guest"

Huang continued to follow the red haired mystery girl; he followed despite not trusting her that much, how can he trust someone who wouldn't even look him in the eye, he gave her the benefit of the doubt because she had come to warn them on a couple occasions, and they had ignored her those times, and they ended up each time regretting it, but something about her didn't seem deceitful in nature, she suddenly came to a halt, still not turning around to face him.

"You came here to find Scythe, but you will discover things you will have not expected, something's dark and sinister in nature, and news you may welcome, but beware this place is full of danger below its very surface" said the Mystery girl.

"What do you mean" said Huang confused about the vagueness of the Mystery girl's statement, "what danger below the surface?"

"Below the surface is darkness, cruelty, and madness, something messing with something they shouldn't, and powers beyond human comprehension" said the mystery girl still being vague in what she was saying. "You will know when you will find a way to what you must seek"

Huang got extremely frustrated and tried to step in front of her, but when he thought he did, he was still looking up at the back of her head, he tried again with the same results, and he tried a few times more, getting angrier as he did so, no matter how many times he tried to get in front of her he was always facing her back, then abruptly he sat up in bed covered in sweat, and panting. Had that whole thing been a dream, or did she send him back to bed, he replays all the words she said to him in his mind trying to figure them out. He noticed then that Sorami was in his room, she stood at the door looking down at him, why did she have to be so creepy about things?

"It's time to get up, we are starting our investigation now" said Sorami turning and leaving as she spoke, in her usual icy tone.

Huang looked at the window; the sun had barely crested above the horizon, it wasn't even morning yet, he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes, and forced himself out of bed, hopefully they would either find Scythe today or hopefully she would be behind this, it kind of made him think Logene was behind the madness, he woke his digimon partner Babydmon, who instantly went back to sleep, Huang just picked him up and placed him on his shoulder, he wished his digimon wouldn't be this lazy that he sleeps all the time, and the only time he ever wakes up is during battles. Outside Sorami and Impmon were waiting for them.

"We will ask around to see where most of the disappearances happened; to get a better idea to where to start looking, and what might be the cause of this" said Sorami as soon as she had spotted Huang exiting the cottage, and walked off before he had a chance to respond, they started by questioning people at bars, and then shop owners, and their staff, none of them knew anything, they headed to the family of the boy that they had encountered the day they arrived.

"He was heading to his friend's house when he vanished, and he reappeared at our front as mad as he is now, the first he said was potatoes ate his brain, and left him with gravy" said the boy's mother "We were so happy to see him the way he was didn't matter all, till he started getting violent to himself, he ran off before we could get help for him, if you see him again please bring him back to us?" She ended with a pleading tone.

Watching from a safe distance were Echo, and Sonic, two of the robed figures from the night before, but not wearing them now, they were observing Sorami and Huang.

"If we find your son, we will bring him back to you" said Huang as he tried not to see the expression that Sorami was presently giving to him, reading that expression would probably kill him, the icy cold that said he was wasting her time, and they would not look for any lost child, but he would do so regardless of her. After they were a safe distance, he turned to face Sorami, though not looking her directly in the eye "Do you think Logene is behind this, the whole thing being one of his sick experiments?"

"Tabula Rosa? We sent guardians there to investigate, this does seem like some sort of experiment I wouldn't be surprised if he was behind this whole thing" said Sorami her expression softening slightly, but not by much. "We need to head back to the Cottage its getting dark; we won't anything in the dark"

"That was a waste of time" said Sonic as he turned to face Echo; he gave out a sigh, as got up from the chair.

"No! That was a possible clue?, We should talk to Scythe asking her if Logene has been seen around these parts, I was warned about him, being a sick demented sociopath that kills people in the name of his experiments, and Scythe doesn't like him" said Echo as she got up to follow Sorami and Huang but keeping their safe distance away.

Sorami and Huang returned back to the cottage, Huang disappointed that nothing was accomplished by that day's investigation, hoping tomorrow he would find that path his dream had told him about, hopefully it wasn't just a dream, with his luck all it had been was a dream and would lead him nowhere.

That night Huang dreamed again, but this time he knew it was a dream, this time instead of the red haired girl, he was watching one hooded kid. By the size of him he was a kid years younger than he was, from the looks of him he was running from something, whatever it was he could not make it out, whenever the boy thought he had escaped, there it was again, to make the boy start running once more, the thing chasing him might have been a digimon, but from the shape of it, it wasn't once he had ever seen before, the boy in the cloak suddenly tripped and was dragged into the darkness of a nearby alley. Huang woke up sweating, and breathing heavily, he took a few moments to calm down before going back to sleep again, this time having a normal dream.

-5 Years ago-

On the training ground, lush with green grass, pine trees, and the main trainee barracks, it seemed to be carved out of the ground itself, as it to be any seam between its wall and the ground, it was like the building grew out of the ground itself, it was a very impressive sight to behold, and she was going to be sleeping there at nights.

"What are looking at you filthy Lilithmon crud, you heard me, get down and give me 100 pushups now" Drake yelled directly in Sorami's ear, making her nearly jump out of her skin, she dropped instantly and starting doing pushups, when she was done, she was breathing heavily, and covered in sweat.

"Now run 50 laps around the training course now you unholy spawn of Lilithmon" Drake yelled maybe a minute after Sorami has stopped from how it felt, Sorami scrambled to her feet, and started running, he followed closely behind her shouting one insult after another for all 50 laps, she dropped to her knees once she was finished, then came pull ups, sparring with quarterstaffs. Then came the training with her digimon partner Yaamon, she was only in her In-training form, but even that training involved with Drake yelling her, at this point tears started to escape her eyes as the training was starting to rip her apart mentally, she was 10 years what did they expect from. She then reminded herself that was the youngest trainee and they were treating her like one, and not a child.

-Present day, Location unknown-

A hooded girl stood in front of the Statue of Kiseki, she walked passed it, and walked into the cottage behind it, and waiting for her inside was a bunch of children of various ages, and genders, they all looked happy to see the hooded figure, which then pulled off her hood revealing a girl with pale skin, with long green hair that changed to blue as she looked down as the children, her expression never changing from a blank one of no emotions whatsoever. It was Scythe; the children swarmed her, and each getting a warm hug from her. She took a count of who was there "Echo and Sonic are still investigating the disappearing children, and finding out what is driving them insane before they return?" She said to a chorus of nodding head's in response.

A shy little girl stepped forward "They wanted me to ask if Logene was up to any experiments in this area, since this feels like something he would do?" She asked timidly, and struggling sheepishly with each word she said.

Scythe's hair went deep crimson, causing the shy girl to back away, and then her hair went back to blue "As far Logene is still at the citadel, so it's not him, Aural you can tell the others that" said Scythe with her hair turning red again, when she said the name Logene.

Two hooded figures came into the cottage, and pulled back their hood to reveal it was Sonic, and the girl beside him had shoulder length light Cyan hair, she had a scar across the bridge, going from cheek to cheek, her eyes were a deep red, and both of them were panicking about something, the girl was the one to speak, "We were watching cottage the guardian, and the Digidestined was in, when we heard a scream, we went to investigate, and found Silence's cloak. Whatever has been taking the children has taken him too.

"We need to hurry and find him, We need to risk asking them for help" Scythe, even though her expression didn't, and the tone of her voice, her hair turned a shade of gray symbolizing that she was depressed. "I'll go I don't want any of you to get hurt, they are looking for me, I'll give myself if they help find him"

"No they will kill you; you said that's what they do with like you" said Echo in a pleading tone, hoping that she would think of another way to get Silence back without handing herself over to the guardian.

"They want me to take them into the Citadel; they won't kill me" said Scythe with her hair turning blue once again, showing she had just calmed her nerves. "Now go back to Sanctuary if I don't come you are in charge Echo"

At the end of the days Sorami practically dropped into bed, with the sound of a thud as she did so, every part of her body ached, everything below her neck was a mass of pain.

Drake walked into the room, Dynasmon was with him this time, Drake walked up to the trainee cot, and pats Sorami on the head, and smiled down at her "you are a spirited little one, I am happy with your progress even on your first you have excelled, but I am sorry it's going to get worse the longer you train I hope you can handle it, I'll understand if you quit now?" He said looking down at with his puppy dog expression of worry.

"I'll never quit, you have me mistaken for someone weak I am my father's daughter I will be as strong as him!" Sorami mustered the strength to shout, and getting enough to raise her head from the pillow on her bed.

"Glad to hear that?" Said Dynasmon bowing respect, before leaving, he waved bye as he left the room, leaving Drake and Sorami alone now.

"I have something to show you, it's breathtaking" Drake said gesturing for Sorami to follow him, right before walking out of the room, quickly followed Sorami, she was tired but curiosity made her forget that.

She followed Drake out of the trainee barracks, and through the gates leading out of the training area all together, they walked for several meter till what appeared to be monument took shape in the distance, it was crystalline mausoleum, made out of jade, its green surface glinted like there was light, except the sun had gone down an hour ago, they walked into it front entrance, inside was a statue, Soichiro Kamiya, her ancestor that wielded crest of Courage, which symbol was old emblem of the guardians. Sorami ran her hand across its surface.

Across from that was another statue this one was her great great-grandmother Sorami Yagami, the statue had the symbol of Light. She herself was named after her, the legendary digimon of light, and she then walked over to that one, placing her hand on the symbol too, which was the current of the guardians. This was part of her family history; this was the first time she had ever been here. To be here seeing both these legends were breathtaking, she would never be able to live to these ancestors, both statues carved out of precious gems. In her excitement she started crying, she was so happy to see this. "My father is the new Bearer of the light, right drake?" Sorami asked as she turned to look in his direction.

"Yes he is, it came to him last year, he changed the emblem of our order because of it" Drake relied nodding in acknowledgement, with a smile spreading across his face being proud of what he said

"Why doesn't he ever show it to me, I always wanted to see an actual digi chip, it has been my dream since my father started telling me the old stories of the digidestined" asked Sorami giving Drake a confused expression.

"Someday when he thinks you are ready he will show you the Digi Chip of Light, when that day comes it will the most memorable day of your life, I have seen and it took my breath away" said Drake as he placed his hand on Sorami's shoulder, reassuring that what he said was true. "Your father loves you more than anything in his life"

-Present day-

Sorami awakened, and sat up in bed, got dressed, and headed to Huang's room to wake him up. They had more investigating to do, and the search for Scythe had to continue, she entered Huang's room, but he was already awake, after a few minutes they were ready to go.

They were leaving the cottage, when Huang stopped in his tracks, his expression, went from his usual to that of extreme, Sorami turned to see what he was looking at, it was Scythe just standing in the middle of the path, her emotionless face just like the last time they had met, at that moment Huang let rage completely take over, he picked up a hat rack, and charged at Scythe, aiming to cave in her skull. Everything went passed in slow motion seemingly, from Huang picking up the intended weapon and charging raising the blunt object into the air, with blood thirst coming off him in waves. Sorami rushing after him trying to stop, they needed to bring her in alive and him killing would mean they came there for no reason. That's when a cloaked figure jumped at Huang; he quickly knocked that one away.

Another figure but smaller jumped in between Huang and Scythe, and pulled back his hood, this Huang to drop the hat rack and drop to his knees, he stared up like he was looking at a ghost. He continued to stare wordlessly trying to make himself speak, when he finally spoke all Huang could say was "Leung?" His expression was complete confusion, and everything just stopped making sense to him.

-To Be Continued-

One of Huang's brothers is still alive, and why is he with Scythe? To answer these questions, and more, please tune into the next Digimon digital monsters!
